PC for LUMIN X1 ! .... Shunyata? Nordost? Synergistic Research? AQ?


I was ready to purchase a Shunyata Alpha V2 PC from my new streamer/dac but after reading a few things I held off.

Now im utterly confused. Way too many options and not enough info comparing. My upper limit for this source component is $2k, but I don't mind buying a used cable either

ultimately this will be going into a gryphon diablo 300 into kef blades 2 if listing the chain helps

The Audio Bacon website has a comparison of maybe 20 powercords. I have a LUMIN T2 and use an AQ Monsoon on it. The Lumins have a very good internal power supply. You have some nice gear btw.
Well, I am using a Synergistic Research Galileo SX with my Lumin X1 which is plugged into a Niagara 7000 which is using a Audioquest Dragon hi-current into a dedicated line.

To me, all things matter when it comes to AC.

Do you like the Niagara? I was interested in the Everest power conditioner, but even Shunyata don’t recommend to plug the amp into it directly. So I ended up not buying. Looking for a solution that will benefit all my components, not just source.

As for the Galileo SX, how do you like it compared to others you’ve tried.
